Why I do what I do

I'm passionate about financial education, and I love helping others reach their greatest potential.

I serve members in…

Indiana and surrounding communities.

I can help you plan for life using a variety of tools, including…

life insurance, annuities, mutual funds, variable annuities, and investment advisory services.

I am very proud of…

my community and the impact we leave on others.

Before Modern Woodmen, I…

was a small-business owner. I owned two small, independent pharmacies.

I chose Modern Woodmen because…

as a small business owner, I was very involved in the community. Through my Modern Woodmen career, I can use the tools I learned as a small-business owner to help other people reach their financial goals.

The best part of my career is…

helping other people achieve their goals and dreams.

A favorite moment in my career was when…

I won Rookie of the Year in my district!

Current insights

Back in the day, members used unique ways to express the need to prepare for the unexpected. Goggles (called "hoodwinks") were sometimes worn by a new member as part of an initiation ritual. Pins (push buttons) on the goggles changed the color seen through eyepieces from black to red, open and closed. This prop showed that things change throughout your life. #ThrowbackThursday
